You wonder if the conversation might have gone like this.

I heard NHRA may have a little IRS problem. If you put me on the board of directors I'll work for peanuts if you hire my law firm.
Mr. Cohen is a most excellent Tax Controversy lawyer. His clients usually have very serious tax issues and need a heavy weight to protect them. nhra staff probably approched him and at a later date it was decided by all parties to put him on the Board. It seems unlikely that he was put on the Board because nhra wanted some adult supervision.
